College American Political Process Practice Test

Which of the following is an example of a solidary incentive?

Social rewards such as companionship and status. Monetary gains. Pursuit of a specific cause. Access to policy makers.

Correct Answer:

Social rewards such as companionship and status.

Explanation:

Solidary incentives are the social rewards you get from being part of a group—things like companionship, friendship, and status. This question points to social rewards such as companionship and status, which motivates people to participate because of belonging and social connection rather than money or a specific mission. Monetary gains are material incentives, focusing on money. Pursuit of a specific cause is a purposive incentive, driven by ideology or goals. Access to policy makers is a practical benefit, not a social reward rooted in group belonging.
